Father's Son

So how are you doing up there I'm doing quite allright Have you seen my little boy He looks just like you I have been watching you Since the day I left Yes I have seen your little boy He has his father's smile I am his guardian his angel by his side I will protect him till the day that you die Take all of your strength to make him as proud as he can be Make him feel proud to say I am my father's son I made a mess of life Selfishness and alcohol I lost control of it I never wanted it this way I have his trust but it's hard to keep it up I will protect him till the day that I die Take all of my strength to make me his example I don't want him to say I am not my father's son I don't think he will But what if he does It's in your own hands The answer lies with you I didn't listen It happened in a blink of an eye I was drunk again Now I am his guardian his angel by his side And I will protect him till the day that he dies Do what I can do to set his course a different way than mine But I heard him say I am not my father's son
